My husband and I were under Dr Carver’s care before he became affiliated with MDVIP. When he went MDVIP we followed him because we trust him with our lives and did not want to loose him! He is an excellent Christian physician, exudes ethics and moral demeanor, amazing listener and proactive in providing the “best care” possible for whatever we present.

I was a patient of Dr. Carver when he was in Family Practice. When I was informed of hi decision to move to MDVIP, I was disappointed. However, I also knew I was joining too. I was and still am pleased with my decision! He is the best Primary Care Physician I have ever had!
Much praise and love!
Today I celebrate my doctor, Dr. David Carver!

Dr David Carver and his team have been nothing but spectacular. The first time I met Dr Carver it was a sort of meet and greet. That was on a Thursday and the following Monday I was back for a follow up after having a severe concussion over the weekend. The care I was given was wonderful.
